The continued erasure and whitewashing of Palestinian Islamic terrorism continues at CBC, Canada’s publicly-funded broadcaster.

In an October 15 segment for the CBC radio program Front Burner entitled: “A reporter in Gaza’s year of survival,” host Robyn Poisson spoke with Hani Mahmoud, an Al Jazeera reporter described as a “tremendous journalist” by the host during the interview.

Watch the full segment below:

While hosting a pro-Palestinian voice is entirely acceptable, given that the same program featured an Israeli on October 7, the segment offered a nonstop regurgitation of debunked anti-Israel disinformation from Mahmoud, all with little to no pushback and challenge from Poisson.

During her introduction for listeners, Poisson repeated the unverified allegation that “42,000 people have been killed” in Gaza, citing “local health authorities,” failing to share how those supposed “authorities” are in fact part of the Hamas terrorist apparatus.

She continued by listing off a litany of apocalyptic claims, including that “more than 80 percent of health facilities are destroyed or damaged, as are more than 90 percent of roads. Every university in the territory is gone.”

Not only did Poisson once again fail to share that these statements came from Hamas, a bona fide terrorist organization, but no less important, she entirely ignored the critically important detail that Hamas has widely transformed civilian infrastructure in Gaza, and converted it into terrorist use. This is not an allegation, but a widely documented fact. However, listeners of Front Burner would have learned none of this.

In fact, Hamas barely merited any mention at all in the 27-minute segment. Despite both Mahmoud and Poisson referring to “October 7th” a total of 13 time during their conversation, Hamas – the genocidal terrorist organization which launched a series of massacres that day, sparking the current war – was mentioned only once during the conversation, in an off-handed way by Mahmoud, who, while acknowledging “they’re bad,” soon launched into a broadside blaming Israel for the terrorist group’s actions, asserting that “But there is a bigger institutional racism, institutional occupation, institutional oppression going on. You need to get rid of that. And then it’s easy to get rid of every other byproducts of it.”

This is, however, utter nonsense. Hamas, like Hezbollah and its patron, the Islamic Republic of Iran, has been painfully clear about its intentions: the violent destruction of Israel, and as a result, no policy change on Israel’s part could possibly quench the blood thirst of Hamas and its allies.

Mahmoud made the baseless, if predictable, accusation of “ethnic cleansing” against Israel, a statement that not only is entirely unsupported by any evidence whatsoever, but in fact is defeated by a mountain of proof, including Jerusalem’s extensive efforts to minimize civilian casualties in Gaza, all despite Hamas doing its utmost to use its own population as human shields.

Once again, however, this point went unchallenged by Poisson, who appeared content to let this contemptible falsehood stand without any pushback whatsoever.

Some of the misinformation was leveled not by Mahmoud, but by Poisson, who claimed that “more than 100” journalists were killed in Gaza over the past year, before featuring a sound clip which reported that Al Jazeera reporter Ismail al-Ghoul has been killed in Gaza.

While al-Ghoul was an employee of Al Jazeera, he was also a Hamas terrorist, a point curiously ignored in the report, which also ignored that the oft-repeated allegation of 100 dead Palestinian journalists which is highly contested.

For an employee of Al Jazeera, the state-funded broadcaster in Qatar, which helps facilitate Hamas terrorism, it should come as no surprise that its reporter, Hani Mahmoud, repeated groundless anti-Israel disinformation. But what is unacceptable is that Jamie Poisson, on her Front Burner radio show, both let it remain unchallenged, and even helped contribute falsehoods.
